Tasting Notes
Bitter with a nice amount of fruitiness.
Steep 1 pound of Caravienna for 30 minutes. I added it to 3 gallons of water when the temp was 148. I turned the stove down to a 3 on the dial and it slowly rose to 170. I brought the liquid to a boil and added 6 lbs extra light DME (Northwestern). Brought it back to a boil.
60 minute additions:
.49 oz Warrior 17.2% AA
.52 oz Magnum 13% AA
.52 oz Columbus 14.5% AA

30 minute additions:
1 oz Centennial 8.8% AA
7 oz maltodextrin

15 minute additions:
1 tablet of whirlfloc

Flameout additions:
1 oz Amarillo 6.9% AA

After 14 days of fermentation, I dry hopped with 1 oz of Centennial Pellets 9.4% AA

I had based this beer off of Sculpin IPA from Ballast Point. It doesn't have quite the bitterness of the Sculpin IPA and has more floral aroma and flavor notes. Over all I am quite happy with this beer and will make it again (and again and again).
 
I love Sculpin, and I want to brew it but it has insanely lots of hop varieties which makes it very difficult for me to brew (since we do not have LHBS here). I am looking for an identical, but simpler recipe.

I'll consider this as a recipe to make.
